Publisher's Summary

Mountain Man, book 1: Boomstick. Samurai bat. Motorcycle leather. And the will to live among the unliving.

One Credit, Three Great BooksFirst, let me say these are great Zombie books at regular price, the fact that two of them are basically free is a great deal. You can spend three credits or three times the money, for the price of this one omnibus. Even if you did not like the first book, you would only be out one credit. The even greater thing about this series, is that you can get, The Hospital, for free. Get that and if you don't love it, don't buy the omnibus. If you like The Hospital, you will like these three books.

Gus is the star of the first two books. He is a regular guy, no solider, no special training, everything he knows he learned watching movies from the Seventies and Eighties. He scratches his junk, worries about his bowel movements and does a lot of drinking. A lot of drinking. EVERY MORNING I SQUEEZE PIPE. I enjoyed the second book, Safari the most. Gus is pretty much the only character. We kind of watch him go mad. He has lived alone for a long time and his best friend his a bottle of Captain Morgan. It is kind of like Tom Hanks in Castaway and his soccer ball. There is a lot of language and a lot of gore.

The third book is great, but not as good as the first two. Scott is the main character and he is just not as interesting as Gus. There are some slow parts or some shoot-em up parts that bored me, but not many. This book is grosser then the first two and has some well written scenes. When Scott takes a walk with the Zombies and starts to panic, I almost had a panic attack with him. Very well written. The third book especially, you want to listen in as large as chunks as possible. The longer you listen the more you become part of the characters. Anytime you quit and come back, it takes a little while to get that involved again. I actually missed an exit once, I was so into the story.

Yes. It's a great read if you're into zombie books. I found reasons to have alone time or take long drives because I wanted to hear how it turned out.

What did you like best about this story?

I was interested in the characters and their development; made me root for certain characters and despise others (oh, and the action wasn't bad either!). It was like watching a great mini series where you really can't wait for the next episode to see what happens next.

What about R. C. Bray’s performance did you like?

As usual, amazing. I've started choosing books solely because he's the narrator.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It's a zombie book...so no. :-)

Any additional comments?

Good read if you want to take a mental break and hear a great action story.

At first I found it hard to relate to Gus. After a few near death encounters, you really start to get the guy. Same with Scott. As you progress through the story, each character is developed nicely. Until you know the whole crowd pretty well. The good guys have it tough, but justice prevails...there are worse things than zombies in this book and they get what's coming to them.

I, like many audiophiles, follow narrators just as much as authors. I discovered RC Bray after listening to The Martian and just fell in love with his voice. Enter the Mountain Man series. I'm not a fan of zombie science fiction but this book was a real treat. I loved how he made the day-to day struggle to survive so real. (I don't watch the Walking Dead often but I don't know if they've ever discussed the joy of finding TP.) The fact that I was able to get the full story with one credit was just icing on the cake.

Mountain Man was a great addition to the genre because of the detail and full realization of the story. A lot of novels in the zombie biz have to short some areas to fit within the confines of a quick read. the Mountain Man series gets away from this by having a long view of the story. There are just as many descriptions of boring, do nothing days, as there are of quick intense action! I love that balance and full enjoy the series.

I am not a big survivalist or zombie fan. My prefs usually run to sci-fi space opera.I listened to the free title and was not overly impressed. But wanted a long title for my commutes and took a chance that it wold be mildly entertaining based on the reviews.Turns out it's a good listen. The characters are generally the Everyman sort, no excessively over the top types.

I would say that some of the characters live through things they probably shouldn't have, but I know some people in RL that lived through worse, so I didn't have to keep a perpetual state of disbeliefe going, though some part did stretch credulity a bit.

If you can get into underdog against the odds type stories you might like this one.

The mountain man is a good zombie story but doesn't really offer anything new. The narration is OK, although the characters were all delivered in a very similar way. Definitely take a break between each book otherwise it's a struggle!

"Only so far you can go with a zombie story"

This book is repetitive to say the least. Fella gets drunk, trapped by zombies, gets away, repeat with slight variation.

If it was shorter it would have been ok. But it is easy writing and not the most interesting listening.

R C Bray did the best he could with this story.

"Canadian takeaway"

There are many, Zombie survival story's out at the present. This is up there as one of the best. New heroes evolve as does the story, it would be interesting to see if there's a forth book in the series to catch up with Gus!A really interesting read, with the twist of serial killers and canables thrown into the mix!

"Gripping Zombie Story"

I loved this omnibus edition of the first 3 Mountain Man stories.

Great narration and a gripping, suspense filled story meant I listed daily until finished.

Author does a great job of describing (sometimes too great!) Gus and Scott's quest for survival.

First audiobook that I could describe as "can't switch off"

"Brilliant"

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Anyone who likes zombie stories would enjoy this story, as it's told from a single viewpoint. You get in close with the characters, their thoughts and worries and almost feel like your're in the room with them.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Gus, is your average bloke, but you warm to him straight away. He makes the mistakes we would all make, even though there are a number of times your screaming at him not to take the risk. The first book covers his isolation and the problems he encounters in his local town. He makes some bad judgements, based on drinking too much. I love Gus though, he always pulls through.

What about R. C. Bray’s performance did you like?

RC Bray is perfect for this story, he is the Mountain man. His gruff voice portrays the character well and puts you in Gus' mind. I would listen to stories read by him again.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Finding Scott and their time together, also when the two parted suddenly, i didn't want that to happen.

Any additional comments?

This is a brilliant story told from the more personal viewpoint. Gus is alone and isolated, but still has to travel to town and search everywhere for stores for the winter, i loved it and i've listened to alot of zombie stories ! I think the story description doesn't do it justice, it's more than a man with a baseball bat and motorcycle helmet, he's the man, the Mountain man. One of the best stories i've listened to.Get the Hospital for free .
